ItOLLM QUIS DICSRK VALIUM AUDZiiT L.O N D P .N. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1810. Last night We received Dutch Papers. to the 20th i rst. They confirm the account of the occupation of Cettia by the British troops, and add, that it wa s deliveA to us by the treachery of the Junta. They al§o stare, that a French army of 70,000 men is about to enter Portugal. According to private accounts from Cadiz, dated sth-inSt. it appears that so Vast a multitude poured into - that place after the alarM of the. ap proach of the French army, that the population was augmented to tlie .amount of 60,000, in the course of about 24 hours. At length it was judged . absob t uely necessary to, close the gates upor a con siderable. number of fugitives who earnestly, im plored for entrance, but .in vain. Among. the un fortunate persons who were kept lir this unhappy ' situati'on for three days, were a body of Nuns from a . nelkbbouring Convent. Many of the persons ' who had previouslybeen admitted, were comp'elled to leave Cadiziby;sea, some of whom had proceeded t lward, Gibraltar. It does not appear, as reported, that the French had taken possession of the small towns in the vicinity.of Cadiz, at the time %yhen these ac-. counts are dated. By accounts from•Corunna, dated the i2th just. it appears that . the alarm of the ap proach of , the French; and the treachery of the Junta, has produced , the greatest consternation at' Ferrol, where the. people had risen, killed the Go-. vernor, and draggcciiiis body, through the streets. . IVlanfustoes had been posted in all parts of the town, exhorting the people to hazard every thing in •de- . tiice'of, country. Before the motion in the House of COMM OM last night for going into the Committee of Supply, to consider the Army . Ltim4tes, Sir T. 'Fowl* . . , - oppoSed the SPEAKECS leaving the Chair, and saki: ,be would not consent - to vote one man or one shil ling to be at the disposal of the present Ministeri. It PERCEVAL observed, that whoever - was the Mi nister of the country, it could' not be denied that the Army was necessary for its defence; and how ever dairons Gentlemen might be - to - remove the present Ministers, they would not attempt to ac complish , that object by, refusi i ng to vote the Amy FilitUale3, and thereby endanger the Very eNistenceof the country. The fair and regular mode of proceeding which Gen / tlemen alight to adopt was, to L pqve-fur an Address to his/iIIAJESTY to remove his present Ministers; and if they would bring for ward such a motion he should be at any time reAly to meet them. We are convinced, however, that Clie Opposition dill not accept this challenge. , Testerday Mr. WArktimAs brought forward his Notion upon the subject of Ldid WELLINGTON'S Pension. As none of the Paper's have condescended to deta4 that Gentleman's speech, w,e do . not know upon. What ground. he supported his -Motion. We ' .are not in general very anxious to hear or_read any of Mr. W.Arrnar AN'S speeches), but we confess we . should like to haye head his military criVque upOn , • .f.,ord W ELLI NGTON'S campaign. We are convinced that. it Must have been quite oyiginal in its kind--. - notbl i ns like any ith'ing that was ever'heard . before,, 'and such a or?e as it , would be' quite, impossible for any - military man to answer. But thongh Mr. VAlTlltrlAN'S'elqquence on this occasioq, is lost In . tl,- world,, lie carried his Motion. BUONAPAWTE, •itflin, for very, good:reasonS indeed, „looks at Lo. d.

FROM THE HAGUE COURANT, FED. 19. The Moniteur of the 15th instant, contains the following important intellgetice from Spain,` dated _ . _ - - • " Madrid, Fehruary t. • " The King of Spain was 04 the 28th at . Ectja. The - Duke of:Mluno has entered Seville. -The Ai retched Ana, the true alliOss of England, - are driven away by all tile people of the SoUth of Spain.. The iyhabitants of Cadiz appear to have denied the entrance of their town to the Junta, as they had refused it to the .English. The last a of - these traitors was the delivery of Ceuta to the English. ". General Sebastiaoi has entered Granada, and has received a deputatiob from Murcia". We un derstand that the Bth and 6th corps have arrived at Burgos, and Valladolid, where they have. formed a junction with the 6th corps, in order to enter Por tugal. Thus it appears, contrary. to the PrediEtion of Lord Wellesley, that the entrance of Portugal has been determined on by the French." We besides find in the Moniteur, under the head Palls,. Feb. 14, ap official letter from.the Duke of Dalmatia to the Prince of Wagram, and of Neuf •hatel, of which the following is the. principal Con tents:— " The Commander in Chief' states; that he bad not received the account of the state of the' magar , tines found at Jaen ; he knew; however, that there were found in the place 4.4. pieces' of artillery mounted on the batteries, 6000 stand of arms, a great quantity of provisions, and considerable Ma gazines. There were likewise' found at Cordoira. 6000 stand of arms and a full arsenal, of which our artillery has made great advantage. Castillion. and Bacar four eight-pounders and one h o wi - tzer, and six other pieces left behind in the mountains. Since the passage of the Sierra Morena the Impel vial army has thus made itself master of 80 pieces of artillery. " it is probable (says the Duke) that ,Cadiz will follow Seville, and 'thus the/ Spanish-sq'nadron. taken. , , , ' " The Junta has fled to the• island of Leon, in the neighbourhood of Cadiz. It is understood that the greater part s of the Members will embark for America, it is alsO said that they are desirous to entet into a . capitulation and. to capittilate."s -.
